When we first spotted Duranleau in the lobby of the convention center, he couldn't make it six feet without being stopped for a photo. On Friday, he dressed as Ash Stormrider, a mash-up of Pokémon trainer Ash Ketchum and a member of House Targaryen.

Meet Ash Stormrider, "master of the first generation," "victor of the 'Orange Isles,'" and "first of his type."

The phenomenon hit when Duranleau was 10 years old, the same age as Ash Ketchum. He says he's been a fan ever since, pre-ordering all the new games and even cosplaying as Pokémon trainers over the years.

Duranleau was inspired to create this brilliant "Pokémon GO" and "Game of Thrones" mash-up of House Targaryen's sigil, a three-headed dragon.

"I do a bunch of mash-ups and they all start with one small idea and it kind of grows from there," he says. "This sigil is a take on House Targaryen's three-headed dragon. This is a three-headed Charizard."

Duranleau designed the graphic himself and ordered a banner online.

His cosplay features three evolutions of Charizard from the expanded universe perched on his shoulders.

He also holds a box of "Pokéball eggs," handmade from craft foam. They're inspired by the dragon eggs Daenerys carries before her creatures hatch.

Duranleau recycled one of his old Ash Ketchum cosplays to make the new look. He tore it up and lit it on fire.

And that's not costume dirt on his body. Duranleau collected ash leftover from firewood and smeared it all over.

He guesses the cosplay took him 20 hours to make and cost about $200.

Ash Stormrider even has catchphrases, which Duranleau chanted as he walked through the convention center.
